    Alan was incredibly professional, gave great advice and did great work on the surround for our fireplace - also, he did a fantastic job painting the outside of our house (specifically the bay window area!) and was a pleasure to meet and have round - will absolutely have him round again and would highly recommmend!

    Bathroom Refresh

    Posted 06 June

    Alan was excellent. From visiting prior and advising what was possible, to fitting new finishings in my bathroom to make it look like a new room, I couldn't fault him. Work was completed to a high standard and Alan was exceptionally knowledgeable, displaying a wide range of skills.

    Skilled, experienced, and friendly.

    Posted 09 April

    Alan recognised that the work needed to be done quickly, and came to do it the day after we spoke. He clearly knew exactly what to do, and made the damaged stair safe. He was very friendly, and his charges are reasonable.
